G9X MK ii for Spain trip...

Hello all, I'm visiting from the Fuji forum with a question. My wife is visiting Spain in a couple of weeks, and she is used to her iphone 6s for taking pictures. As an enthusiast myself it's difficult for me to let her go without a better camera However, she doesn't want to take my X-T20 as it's a bit too bulky for her and doesn't want to be "inconvenienced" by changing lenses. I've been looking at the G9X ii for its 1" sensor and its semi-vintage styling (which she likes). I'm wondering if any of you can comment on my questions about the camera:

-Low light capability: how will this perform compared to an iphone in interiors, particularly museums etc? Along with IQ, how is the AF in low light?

-Ease of use: how easy is the touchscreen to use? Do the settings get messed up if it's in her bag and then she pulls it out for a quick photo?

-Ease of image transfer to phone: how well/easily does it connect to her phone for image transfer to Facebook/Instagram, etc? Is there an app for this?

Any other comments or suggestions for recommending this camera would be appreciated. Thanks!
